Light Tab

What's the use of holding out
	
A work sore hand to catch some rain

It turns up empty, all is dry
				      
And all you ever wanted was some rain
      
Was some rain


If heaven is the future

Why is it that that you refuse to go

There now with all you have
				      
You really should do more than just complain
      
Just complain


Such a rotten taste

Is left when you don't think to say that

It's just such a sorry waste
			      
To take the easy way out of the pain
      
Of the pain

  
  

		     	   
When the end shines from the deep
	   				   
And all the hate and all the hell that history has released
			     			      
Would tremble before your valor if you'd just get down on your knees
			     			   
And promise to all your children true that you will live in peace

		
Where's the light to shine on me
			
Oh, send me something, send me please
		
Cleanse my body, close my eyes
		      
I'm naked and prepared to die
	       
In the starry atmosphere
		
When all the questions disappear
		
And pressure with a salty taste
				
Exalts the tears that soak your face.
